14 INSTALLATION
1. Make sure you have the following tools and materials before starting.
ANTENNA UNIT LOCATION (See next page)
2. Select an area on the roof for the antenna unit and the location where the wiring will enter the
vehicle through the roof to the satellite receiver inside using the following criteria:
• A shorter distance between the antenna unit and the satellite receiver is most desirable.
• Make sure you have enough room to mount the antenna unit.
• The antenna unit should be mounted on the center line of the vehicle, and not tilted more than 2
degrees in any direction.
• There must be no “line of sight” obstructions. Air conditioning units, other antennas, and storage
areas that are too close to the antenna unit may prevent the satellite signal from reaching the
antenna unit.
• Mount the antenna unit with the handle to rear of the vehicle.
You will need RG-6 coax to complete this
installation. You must use compression style
fittings (like Snap’n’Seal) to terminate ends of coax.
(Coax, fittings and tools sold separately.)
